Master, now Thou are dismissing Thy

Preparing for Great Lent The centre of the Liturgical Year in the Orthodox Church is Holy Pascha - the celebration of Christs Resurrection. It is extolled in the Services as the Feast of Feasts and Triumph of triumphs. Justifiably so, for as the Apostle, St Paul, declared: ... if Christ be not risen, then is our Preaching vain, and your Faith is also vain. (1
CORINTHIANS 15:14).

Now

Pharisee who justified himself by boasting about his works, O Lord, Thou Condemned; but Thou Justified the Publican who was modest, and who, with sighs, prayed for Expiation. For Thou do not accept boastful thoughts, but hearts that are contrite Thou do not despise. Therefore we, too, in Humility, fall down before Thee, Who Suffered for us: Grant us Absolution and Great Mercy.

Amen

and ever, and to the Ages of ages.

Through His Redeeming Passion, Christ freed us from the tyranny of Death and opened for us the Door to Paradise and Eternal Life. This is the Goal of our life-long Spiritual Journey - a Journey from Death to Life - from Darkness to Light. It is a long Journey and we travellers get weary; we get distracted and wander off or even lose sight of the road. To help keep us focussed, the Church every year compresses for us this Journey as it prepares us to greet the Feast of Christs Resurrection, which is a Foretaste of that Eternal Pascha. We usually think of this Preparatory Time as the Period of Great Lent, but in fact it begins three weeks earlier with the Sundays of the Publican and Pharisee, the Prodigal Son and the Last Judgment. Since we are not Fasting yet, we tend to pay less attention to these Preparatory Sundays than we do to the Sundays of Great Lent, and yet they are very important, as they give us a map, as it were, of our Lenten Journey. Already a week before the Sunday of the Publican and Pharisee, which opens The Lenten Triodion, we hear intimations of the approaching period of Lent. The Gospel Lesson for that Sunday relates the story of St Zacchaeus, who had been ... chief among the Publicans, a rich Taxcollector despised for his extortionist practices. He must have been a hard man, but the Voice of his conscience had not been completely stifled, for he came to realize that he had taken the wrong path in life. But what could he do? Perhaps the Great Teacher people were talking about could help him. When he heard that our Lord Jesus Christ was to pass by, he climbed up into a sycamore tree in order to catch sight of Him over the crowd, for Zacchaeus was short of stature. Any self-consciousness or concern that he - such a public figure would be laughed at and scorned, was overcome by his intense desire to see the Lord - his desire to get help in order to set his life aright. And what happened? Jesus Christ not only acknowledged him, He went to his house.

TRIODION PUBLICAN & PHARISEE 9 FEBRUARY 2014

Zacchaeus heart expanded in the Presence of this Divine Love and he resolved to make amends to all those whom he had wronged. In other words he immediately began his Journey to a New Life in Christ. As we approach the Fast, we must have this same desire - the same state of mind as St Zacchaeus. If we genuinely desire to catch sight of our Lord Jesus Christ amidst the worldly vanities that surround and overwhelm us, God will visit us. We must simply have the desire to receive Him in the home of our heart. The Sacred Lesson for the following Sunday reminds us of the Parable of the Publican and the Pharisee. Both men were in the Temple praying. The Pharisee prayed: God, I thank Thee that I am not as other men are - extortionists, unjust, adulterers, or even like that Publican! . Meanwhile, the Publican beat his breast, crying out from deep within his soul: O God, be merciful to me, a sinner! The Pharisee did well by Tithing and Fasting; he was undoubtedly an upright, respectable citizen. Any Virtue he possessed, however, was poisoned by his proud and arrogant attitude. He was self-satisfied and expressed no desire to change. As we enter upon the Lenten Struggle, we must beware of such complacency - of being satisfied with keeping the Rule of the Fast while judging those who do not. Such a prideful attitude can ruin all our good efforts. Instead, we should imitate the humble, contrite Publican, who was a man who may have, like St Zacchaeus, led a bad life but finally acknowledged and Repented the error of his ways. He was trying now to please God, but found himself constantly falling into his old habits and giving in to temptations. The Publican saw that he possessed no Righteousness and that he was a wretched sinner in desperate need of Gods Great Mercy. O Lord, he cried, help me! Such Humility invites Gods Grace. The Publican may not have Fasted according to the requirements of the Law and he may have neglected other ordinances of the Law, but his Humility raised him above the legalistic Pharisee, and he returned to his home completely Justified.
